This is a Two Owner Southern California (South Orange County) Owned Mercedes Benz. It was bought originally from Mercedes Benz of Laguna Niguel and has never left this clean and dry climate. The Original Window Sticker and all Original Books come with the vehicle. A picture of the Window Sticker is included in the pictures provided. Using the word PERFECTION is not something I like to throw around loosely, but this car is in as brand new condition as you can find for a ten year old car. I am a certifiable car FREAK and rarely see cars in this condition. You could drive this car up to the Newport Beach Concour Event this summer and it would score with the best of the best. I have been a car restorer for the last 25 years and can find ZERO signs of any paint work or repair to this automobile. The Gorgeous Aegean Blue paint finish and orange peel matches perfectly from one panel to the next, all the way around the car. You simply will not find a cleaner, more perfect example for sale. The pictures I took were mostly in the morning and it was a little dark, so the pictures really do not do the color justice. To me, this Aegean Blue is without questions one of the most elegant and striking colors that has ever graced the flanks of a Mercedes Benz Automobile. One of the great things about it is it seems to change color depending on the light. Also, for a dark car it does not show every speck of dust or dirt like Black. But in darker evening type of setting the car has a “Black” look to it. I simply cannot say enough about this color on THIS car. Spectacular. The Interior looks as though no one has ever sat in it. The pictures taken show “mats” over the mats. That’s right, the original mats have never been exposed to feet or dirt. There is another set of mats over top. Amazing. This vehicle has all the goodies you want, including the Retractable Hardtop, Navigation, Power Lumbar Heated and Ventilated Seats. Dual Zone AC. Wood Trim and Leather Interior. Bose Stereo with 6 CD Changer. This Aegean Beauty had a sticker of over $90K in 2003 and is an absolute steal with a lot of life to go... in fact, it is barely broken in. THIS is how you to buy automobiles. From picky, picky meticulous owners with extremely low miles. These are hard to find, but one you find them, do not hesitate, because they go quickly. Meticulous Owners… All Records. Both owners never used this car as a daily driver that sat outside. This was more of a weekend/fun car... which explains the low 3800 miles per year logged. Everyday and night of its life was spent in a garage. This car has spent very little time out in the sun and it shows. The Exterior, Interior, Wheels and Under the Hood all look absolutely Brand New. There are no dings to this gorgeous automobile and zero signs of repaint to any panels. This vehicle is in absolutely flawless condition and needs nothing. The wheels have no curb rash and tires are nearly perfect. This generation SL is probably one of the best looking cars to ever be penned by Mercedes Designer’s and are sure to be future classics. An example like this with 38K miles at a fraction of the original price absolutely makes no sense. This car should be $50K. Go price out a new one and see what I mean. That is if you like the new one as much as this one.... personally this car is WAY sexier and classic to the Mercedes Benz Style. You simply will not find a nicer example of one of these beauties anywhere. Again, this is a NO RESERVE AUCTION, this car is going to sell, so don’t wait... or call us to make an appointment.
